What’s unique about the new HomeAgain WorldScan™ reader?
The new HomeAgain WorldScan™ reader, manufactured by Digital Angel, Inc., reads all microchips utilizing the 125 kHz and 128 kHz radio frequencies (HomeAgain, AVID and Trovan) including those that previously could not be read by all U.S. scanners. The HomeAgain WorldScan reader also detects the 134.2 kHz microchips, or ISO chip, commonly used outside of the United States and can read some Digital Angel 134.2 kHz ISO chips. While the new scanner will not display the number of all ISO chips, it will indicate the presence of the chip so that steps toward a recovery can be put in place. How can pet owners enroll their pets with HomeAgain Pet Recovery Service? They can contact a local veterinarian participating in the HomeAgain system, who can implant the microchip, provide the collar tag at time of implantation, as well as an enrollment form for the HomeAgain Pet Recovery Service. If adopting a new pet from an animal shelter, the shelter may provide microchipping with HomeAgain. For more i
